Determination

 Kellisa's Bedroom

Roseville, CA
December 14,2024

When we enter Kellisa's bedroom in the morning, we usually find her basically the same way we left her the night before. She might move around a little, but for the most part, she moves very little during her sleeping hours. 

Every once in awhile, Kellisa surprises us and this morning was one of those days. I heard she was awake and entered her room to help start her day and the picture to the right is what I saw. 

Kellisa on the floor, back against her bed with her mattress moved from its base, reading a book about reptiles with a giant smile on her face.

Kellisa spent the previous day looking through this book and at bedtime, I left it on her dresser. Kellisa's determination is inspiring. She had to get out of bed, scoot across the floor, reach up and probably knock the large, heavy book off her dresser before scooting back to her bed. I'm not sure why the mattress and blankets were so disheveled. 

Maybe we need a nocturnal camera to see what goes on in her bedroom after we leave for the night.
